Ok, well I had some issues getting these made. First off, the instructions are less than what I would call "clear". Then I had to add 7+cups of flour just to get the dough even remotely cooperative. Added I'd say another 1/2 cup of flour on top of all that when I was kneading. With all of that said, the final result were some very good cinnamon rolls although I can't say I would go through all this again. I have another favorite zaar sweet dough that I use and will continue to use over this one. I do have to say that my DH liked these a lot. Sorry, it just didn't thrill me all the work involved in getting the dough to cooperate. I will however use the frosting on other things. That part of the whole recipe is 5 star. Made for PAC Spring 09. Oh, I also wanted to say that I made 12 cinnamon rolls out of this and then 6 very large blueberry danish.
